1. Water Filters

After a long summer of travel, it's smart to restock. Clean, safe water is always a must-have on the road. Keep a few RV water filters on hand so you're never caught without one.

2. Camp Casual Blankets

If you splurge on one cozy item this season, make it a Camp Casual blanket. We have two and absolutely love them—perfect for fireside chats or chilly mornings with coffee.

A surge protector will help keep your RV's electrical system safe.  Always use one!

3. Surge Protector

Protect your RV with a reliable RV surge protector. It’s an investment worth making to avoid costly electrical damage at the campground.

The Kohree Trunk Organizer is a great tool to keep your gear in one spot that you can easily pull out of your tow vehicle to use and keep safe from the elements!

4. Trunk Organizer

Fall is the perfect time to get organized. Use a camping trunk organizer to store tools, gear, cords, and all your odds and ends in one place.

5. Taco vs. Burrito Game

This new-to-us game has quickly become a favorite. Pack a few fun RV-friendly games for rainy days or family nights in the camper.

These Turkish Towels are light weight and compact.  We bought a set of 5.  They are a great size and will be perfect for any water activity that we are doing!

6. Turkish Towels

We love a fall beach trip here in the Deep South. These compact Turkish towels are quick-drying, lightweight, and easy to pack for the beach or shower.

7. Javvy Iced Coffee

If you're a coffee lover like me, give this a try—Javvy mixed with a protein shake is the perfect iced drink for an energy and nutrition boost on travel days.

8. Moka Pot

This espresso-style coffee maker is tiny but mighty. I use it for hot drinks with a splash of milk and flavor—like cinnamon or honey. Perfect for cool mornings!

9. Mini Frother

A mini milk frother lets you make custom coffeehouse drinks at the campsite. It’s small, affordable, and totally worth it if you love lattes or cold foam.

10. Frothing Cup/Accessory

Pair your frother with this cup to create the perfect foamy topping. Try milk, oat milk, or cream with flavor add-ins—your RV coffee setup will thank you!

Don't forget your Thermacell to keep bugs at bay!

11. Thermacell

In the South, mosquitoes stick around through Thanksgiving. A Thermacell mosquito repeller helps you enjoy evenings outside without the bites.

12. Pickleball Set

Our go-to outdoor activity lately! This portable pickleball set is fun for couples or families and doesn’t take up much space in your RV or tow vehicle.

13. Adult Coloring Books

Looking for a cozy indoor hobby? Adult coloring books are perfect for rainy days, quiet evenings, or relaxing by the fire without screens or mess.
